10 which:

Fig. 1 is an outer elevation view'of a shoe provided with the soleconstituting the subjectmatter of this invention. Fig. 2 is a lower planview of the sole.

15 Fig. 3 is an enlarged longitudinal vertical section view of the soleon line 3-3 of Fig. 2.

Figs. 4 and 5 are lower plan views of two modiied structures of thesole.

20 The improved construction constituting the viding a sole for shoes,for instance a shoe the vamp I of which is made ofleather or canvas,which sole has a tread portion l composed of 25 straps of sole-leather2' and straps of crepe rubber 2" laid parallel one to the otheralternately in transverse direction and glued together by4 means ofcrepe rubber 4 being secured to the tread porsubject-matter ofthis'invention consists in'pro-f tion 2 by means of a rubber cement. theshoe sole being thus completed.

'I'he heel 5, if used, can be made in the same manner as the sole justdescribed.

Fig. 4 shows a modied structure of the tread 5 portion 2, in which thestraps 2' of sole-leather and the straps 2 of crepe rubber are disposedlongitudinally to the sole. y

Fig. 5 shows another modie'dstructure of the "tread" portion, inwhichvthe alternate straps of 10 sole-leather 2' and straps of creperubber 2" are laid diagonally to the sole.

Due to the nature of the elements integrating the sole, they may besecurely and permanently held by a rubber` cement, without requiring avul- 15 canization, thus dierentiating this sole from the solesheretofore known as composed of straps.

What I claim is:

1. A sole for shoes having a. base composed of a leather sole and alower layer of crepe rubber 2Q stitched to it, a tread portion composedof straps of sole-leather and straps of crepe rubber arranged paralleland alternately, and rubber cement uniting all said elements.

2. A sole for shoes having a base composed of leather rim and a lowerlayer vof crepe rubber stitched to it, a tread portion composed ofstraps o1' sole-leather and straps of crepe rubber arranged parallel andalternately in transverse direction, and'rubber cement unitingall saidele- 30
